SO, i think i have a problem...

okay, i KNOW i have a problem. the mister tells me almost weekly. my addiction is to jars. pretty, glass jars. i can't seem to throw them away. i collect and collect and collect until they are falling over in my cupboard, being stashed in boxes and my husband loses his patience. he's kind enough to never demand i throw them away, but i know it's a frustration. as to me. i can throw them away, i just don't want to. i keep thinking i'll get around to using them. we don't keep our food in anything plastic in our home, so i keep thinking "well, we'll need that for storing some sort of food" or "i'm canning alot more, so i'll need them for that". *sigh*. but i seem to have way more than i'll ever need.

now on to the incriminating photos...

i have a shelving unit full of them....

boxes...

stacks of them...

cupboards....

and more cupboards....

did i mention the fact that i had two rather large stashings of jars in my basement that i couldn't take a picture of because i had boxes in front of them? yeah, i do. fortunately for the mister and my sanity, i threw away half of the jars i had collected this past weekend. i now only have that one black shelving unit full to the brim with lovely, clean, shiny, oh so pretty jars! sigh. i just love them!
